In fact I have booted the machine with NetBSD mounted the FreeBSD  
disk and transfered my datas on the FreeBSD disk. Then I have  
recreated the file system on my second disk with FreeBSD.

I thinks it is a shame that all the BSD OS can get together and have  
something consistent through all the platforms. ext2fs can be mounted  
on all the Linux flavors.
